For 70 of the 100 years that the Bethpage Water District (BWD) has served the community, our headquarters at 25 Adams Avenue has pretty much remained the same other than some slight interior changes.
While most of the foundation remained intact for seven decades, the building itself fell into major disrepair and asbestos abatement was mandatory. After conducting a full assessment, it became clear that the District needed a new home.
Today, the Board of Water Commissioners is pleased to share with residents that the construction of the new BWD headquarters is nearly 90 percent complete. The new building occupies the same footprint as the previous building, is fully equipped with energy efficiencies, and adheres to the latest ADA compliance standards.
In addition, the former garage has been rehabilitated into a fully functional operational center which will house our SCADA system that monitors our water and treatment facilities.
